The predicted displacement occurring for each excavation step from January 1998 to the end of excavation and their cumulative values for 5 later excavation steps are closely characterized by the new analysis technique.
In general, the transport process was closely characterized as Fickian diffusion far above or far below the glass transition temperature of the system and as anomalous transport close to the glassy/rubbery transition.
NAFLD has been closely linked to the metabolic syndrome characterized by obesity, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance (Ron and Walter 2007; Vanni et al. 2010; Speliotes et al. 2008; Speliotes et al. 2010).
Type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are closely related disorders characterized by increased insulin resistance.
Furthermore, genomic profiling of Dutch B. pertussis strains indicates that ptxP3 strains are closely related, and are characterized by a chromosomal deletion (27 ).
In this study, we detected a Borrelia sp. in C. sawaii, and the spirochete we characterized is closely related to B. turicatae.
The severity of disease in acutely ill septic patients, indicated by the progression of MODS and endothelial cell injury, was closely related to coagulopathy characterized by hypercoagulability with decreased fibrinolysis.
This decrease in physical activity in RA patients is closely related to pain, characterized by hyperalgesia and spontaneous pain, mostly caused and exacerbated by inflammatory mediators (cytokines, prostaglandins) [ 4].
In addition, improper HPC/OC activation is closely associated with fibrotic responses, characterized by myofibroblast activation and extracellular matrix production, in many chronic liver diseases.
This provides further evidence that the plasmids carried by our NE strains are closely related to the previously characterized C. perfringens toxin-encoding plasmids.
